Episode Synopsis


Bill Belichick is the new head coach at University of North Carolina.

Belichick's father coaches there in the 50's but perhaps his more relevant connection to the school is their greatest ever player, and possibly the greatest pure football player he ever coached Lawrence Taylor.

Taylor has already mentioned in an interview that he loves the idea of Belichick coaching at UNC and Taylor still loves the school and how it was a major formative part of his development as a person and player.

With all of the success in New England with Brady it's easy to forget that Belichick's also won two super bowls as a defensive coordinator with the New York Giants and Lawrence Taylor as their star player.

Belichick coached Taylor from his rookie season through to his retirement.

In today's episode we give our takes on how we think this could work and how it might not. Could Lawrence Taylor be a key to attracting top players and build UNC into a national title contender immediately? We will find out!!!
